       Who would have believed 73 was optimistic?

       I think most people expected the Theocracy to seriously stray
       from their announced plan of true, fundamental rebuilding,
       without concern about trying to win quickly.  I certainly
       expected them to cave and make moves somewhere along the way to
       eke out a few more wins this summer with pointless moves
       marginally improving the team in the short term, while doing
       nothing to help in the long term and perhaps even to sacrifice
       the long term a bit.
       They really haven't, and that is great, even if it means the
       team ends up with only 60 wins.

       With a record of 51-86, the Cubs need to win 12 of their
       remaining 25 games to avoid a 100 loss season.
       The rest of the schedule:
       At Pittsburgh, 3
       At Houston, 3
       Pittsburgh, 4
       Cincinnati, 3
       St. Louis, 3
       At Colorado, 3
       At Arizona, 3
       Houston, 3
       Current records against those teams:
       Pittsburgh, 3-6
       Houston, 5-4
       Cincinnati, 4-9
       St. Louis, 6-8
       Colorado, 2-1,
       Arizona, 3-3
       If the Cubs split with Houston, Colorado, and Arizona (6-6),
       they will need to finish 6-7 against the contenders.  With
       Germano, Rusin, and Volstad in the rotation, that is not going
       to happen.

       Damn, I knew I was being too optimistic.

       Actually, by Price is Right rules, we're all over...so we all
       lose.
